MY PAPER FORMS

Many of my art pieces that I show at exhibitions and on social media are built from one of these paper forms. Sometimes structured in simple wooden frame, sometimes without, then hanging in fishing lines from the celing.  

I´m researching my Finnish heritage through my paper art - a heritage from a country I´ve never lived in, with a language I only partly speak, but that holds my whole family history. I´ m seeking to find a larger whole by working in a methodic and repititive way, combining many small shapes to build something bigger. You might say that I´m building and recovering my family history, piece by piece...
